Grass Valley HVAC, Plumbing Pros Since 1981

Grass Valley sits at about 2,400 feet in the pines, high enough for real snow and weeks of freezing nights, which puts it in a different category from anything on the valley floor. The housing stock is unusually mixed: Gold Rush era Victorians with no insulation and retrofitted ducts, 1970s and 1980s hillside homes on propane, and newer builds with modern heat pumps. Summers are warm and dry rather than punishing. American Energy Home Pros has served Northern California since 1981, and our licensed technicians (License #1083187) handle furnace failures in a storm and pipes that split after a freeze.

Grass Valley HVAC, Plumbing Questions

Quick answers to common HVAC and plumbing questions from Grass Valley homeowners. Don’t see what you need? Call us anytime.

Do you service Grass Valley?

Yes. Grass Valley is on our Nevada County route alongside Colfax, Auburn, and Applegate. Snow days affect access more than distance does, so we build extra travel time into winter appointments.

Can a heat pump handle a Grass Valley winter?

A modern cold climate heat pump does far better than older models, but at this elevation we still recommend a backup heat source. Dual fuel with a gas or propane furnace is the setup we install most here, because it stays efficient in the shoulder seasons without leaving you cold in a storm.

How do I protect an old Victorian from freeze damage?

Do you offer emergency service during a winter storm?

Carter from American Energy exceeded my expectations for a standard inspection. He left our HVAC system looking bright and shiny! He called before and was able to come by early. Really appreciated that!

Greg Rangel was on time, gave me a courtesy call before he arrived, and once he arrived, he called to find out the issues with the AC and got to work. Greg provided me with information about the AC unit after he found out what was happening, and he walked me through the process and the cost! He also changed the filter! I am now a member due to his outstanding customer service. Thank you, Greg, for your professionalism.

This company responded immediately to address an air conditioning problem for my elderly Mother during 100 degree heat. They responded in just a couple of hours. Greg Rangel was the technician and fixed the problem. He did explain the unit was older and would soon need replacement. He thoroughly explained this to me and offered a senior discount for my Mother and a lower priced unit. Job well done and thank you.

Truly professionals. Garrett showed up at scheduled time, answered all my questions and did a thorough inspection of my unit. Never felt pressured or like I was trying to be sold on anything. He explained everything along the way. An issue was found on some wiring outside, I was shown the issue and given the option to have it fixed. He showed me the completed work and the material used. I would highly recommend this locally owned and operated company.

Greg arrived late Saturday evening and worked out the problem. He explained the problem and eventually determined it began with the original set up of the thermostat, which was wrong for a heat pump. The problem was fixed, and great credit to Greg for being enthusiastic, professional and staying until it was done.

We have had a great experience with everyone from American Energy. Today we had David, and he is a very nice young man, respectful, knowledgeable and very professional. I would recommend this company to all my friends and family.
